    Some of the shots are very original, IMO anyway! I love where he's carrying her, and how you incorporated the winery into the photos...very nice!

    Thank you both for the kind words! The people at the winery were so great, they gave us complete access and actualy held customers outside for a few minutes while we took some shots all at NO location fee (I had contacted a few other wineries in the area that wanted between $350 and $500 for use of the grounds) Even picked up an extra improptu side shoot of the owners for their website which they paid me very handsomly for with a few bottles of wine. How do you beat that friday.gif

    Really nice stuff Jeff! Great job using the vegitation in the foreground, and that gorgeous natural light by the casks. I especially like 3, 4, 5, 6 With 6 being my fave.

    Thanks Matt. When i first saw #3 in my camera I though it was trash with the leaves covering her face so I had them move over just a bit which produced #4. When I started reviewing them on screen #3 really started to grow on me, I just really liked the spontaneity of it. For the shots in the winery as I was setting up the owner started to close the doors for us, I was like Nooooooooooooooo please don't close those could not have asked for better light at that time of day.

    Very nice stuff. I would warm up some of the photos a bit, maybe even a little split-toning. I love #5's color!

    On two head portraits, I usually like to get the girls side profile, as opposed to the guys like in #8.

    I really like the composure of #2.

    Thanks for the suggestions. I agree with you on #8. I prefer to shoot it the other way around and did take a few, but found the profile shots of Kelsey not as flattering to her as I would have liked and had to really turn her head to far into his chest, so I went the other way.

    I have finally discovered the world of RAD actions, and have been playing with the processing on a bunch of pictures. Curious to see if you think these are improvements.

    Beautiful pre-wedding pics taken at a wonderful location! Really good work! I am sure the couple won't regret booking you as their wedding photographer. Have fun at the wedding in July!
